Hahaha!!... No, it's quite ok. When i applied initially, I was doing so under the Fladik brand, as i wanted to go over and see the Johnnie shows that year and potentially write about them for Days of Zorn II. My Zorn Zines were the only readership I had. Even though by my standards selling a couple hundred copies was a big personal achievement, it was hardly the publicity reach I needed to be classified as a real journalist. Now i'm writing for FJB, and we reach 11,000 viewers every day - now that's some proper exposure! :-) It's just logic at the end of the day. So i'm not at all upset about it. And now, I'm super excited!
Hope I see you in Knoxville. Days of Zorn and the Zappa thing are great fun!
personally I wouldn't re-apply to a place that had rejected me for press credentials. Who are these people? Studio 54?
